The margarita also turns 50 this year, and the Plaza will offer a special Golden Margarita made with Sauza Gold tequila at all casino bars this summer for $5. The Plaza will also serve frozen margaritas in a pool souvenir cup for $29 with discounted refills and a $10 souvenir disco ball frozen margarita.
The big summer weekend will be July 2-4 as the Plaza marks its 50th anniversary and the Fourth of July. Those looking to book a holiday getaway can take advantage of the Plaza’s special Independence Weekend room package offering a $50 food and beverage credit, up to $50 free slot play, $75 bingo match play, a complimentary anniversary souvenir, and access for two to private rooftop pool parties every night. The package can be booked online.
On Friday, July 2 and Saturday, July 3, The Comedy Works at the Plaza will welcome headliner comedians Robert Kelly and Kurt Metzger for a special 8 p.m. show. Kelly most recently was on Netflix The Degenerates season 2 and currently is on the successful comedy tour Kreeps With Kids. He also hosts the top-rated podcast You Know What Dude? Metzger has appeared on Comedy Central’s Live at Gotham, VH1’s Best Week Ever, CBS’s The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and Showtime’s White Boyz in the Hood. Tickets can be purchased online for $30.
The brightest highlight of the weekend will be when the Plaza ends each night, July 2-4, with dazzling fireworks shot from its rooftops and lighting up the Las Vegas Valley sky. Staged from multiple locations on the Plaza’s roofs and towers, the three nights of fireworks will be amazing shows for people downtown and visible for miles beyond.

Amusnet Marks Strategic Entry into North America with Ontario Licence
Amusnet is entering the North American market after securing a Gaming-Related Supplier–Manufacturer Registration from the AGCO in Ontario, Canada, marking a strategic milestone in the group’s global expansion.
Licensing grants Amusnet access to Ontario’s regulated iGaming market, which is one of the most established and fast-growing jurisdictions in North America, known for its robust regulatory framework and strong long-term growth potential.
It will allow the supplier to offer online gaming content to licensed operators in the province, officially establishing its presence in the region. Amusnet will initially roll out its iGaming portfolio, with the option to expand into Land-based solutions at a later stage.
Ontario’s regulatory framework emphasises strict compliance, ensuring that all suppliers adhere to high standards in technology, security and player protection. This makes Ontario a key benchmark market for companies entering North America. The new registration further confirms that Amusnet has successfully met these rigorous requirements for integrity and regulatory compliance, enabling it to distribute its content across the province.
“Securing the AGCO licence is an important milestone for Amusnet and reflects our long-term commitment to operating in fully regulated markets. Our entry into Ontario represents a key strategic step into North America, which is a high-priority region with strong long-term growth potential. We look forward to partnering with local operators and building a sustainable presence in the market,” said Ivo Georgiev, CEO of Amusnet.
